Gas Line Repair in Coral Springs, FL
Gas reaches 2% of households in Coral Springs. Where it is present it works the same way as anywhere; there is simply much less of it here than in most of the country.
Read this first
Only 2% of homes in Coral Springs use gas for heat. That makes a gas line the exception rather than the rule, and the ones that exist are usually tank supplies owned on the property instead of utility service lines ending at a meter.
Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey table B25040; the service line boundary is 49 CFR § 192.3.
If you smell gas right now
Leave the building on foot. Do not use a phone or a light switch inside. Call 911 and your gas utility from somewhere else, and do not call us — we are a referral service, not an emergency line. The full list, in order.
How Coral Springs is supplied
Where most homes are electric, gas work is a specialty and less common, and the properties that do have gas are often the older or the larger ones.
The rules do not change with the local share. If there is a mains connection there is a service line ending at the meter outlet under 49 CFR § 192.3, and if there is a tank the whole installation is the owner’s.
| Households in Coral Springs | Share |
|---|---|
| Utility (mains) gas | 2% |
| Bottled or tank propane | under 1% |
| Electricity | 93% |
| Fuel oil and kerosene | under 1% |
| Wood and everything else | 5% |

What B25040 measures is the heating fuel, not the connection. It is the closest published proxy for whether there is a buried service line here, and it is a proxy. Service line definition: 49 CFR § 192.3, via PHMSA interpretation PI-12-0003.
Across Florida as a whole, 5% of households are on mains gas and 1% on tank propane. Coral Springs sits 3 points below the state on mains and 1 point below it on propane. That spread is what a state average hides, and it is why this page carries the town’s own figures rather than inheriting them.
Before anyone digs on the property
Excavation damage remains the leading cause of pipeline incidents according to PHMSA. That is not a fact about pipelines so much as a fact about gardening, and the prevention is one free call to 8-1-1 before the first spade goes in.

What to ask whoever quotes it
Ask what is being left behind: where the new pipe runs, at what depth, and whether you will get a photograph of the trench before it is filled. That record will not exist anywhere else and you will want it eventually.

Checking a plumber in Florida
Florida licenses are issued by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, which publishes a public search you can use before work begins. Florida distinguishes state-certified contractors from registered contractors, who are limited to particular counties.
Gas work is separately permitted and separately licensed in most jurisdictions, so ask specifically about gas rather than plumbing in general.
For repair work, not for a suspected leak.If you can smell gas, leave and call 911 or your utility from outside; this is the wrong number for that. For everything else — a line, a meter, an appliance connection — we will route you to a contractor covering your area, free of charge to you. We serve Coral Springs for plumbing that has nothing to do with gas.
